ottery st mary Posted 27 January, 2014 Share Posted 27 January, 2014 Loans aren't exactly "free". Understand that a loan is not free.. Usually a fee and wages....but nowhere near paying 15/20/25 million etc.. There purchases in recent past are very much hp...big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There purchases in recent past are very much hp...big time. Those fees can still rack up. At least when you buy a player outright, you are able to sell them, and recoup some of the initial outlay. If we sold Ossie, I imagine we'd probably still get around £10m - so it's not a HUGE loss really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sour Mash Posted 27 January, 2014 Share Posted 27 January, 2014 Trying to read between the lines in the quotes from today's press conference, sounds like Osvaldo is most likely to go this month, but nothing is 100% decided yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW5 SAINT Posted 27 January, 2014 Share Posted 27 January, 2014 West Ham are broke.......Sullivan and Gold not spending any of their own money.. Hence loan transfers..........renting the new Olympic stadium next year and selling Upton Park for development. TV MONEY next season etc... Hope they get relegated. This is nothing new for wham, they always seem to try to obtain players, which would otherwise be beyond their means on loans. Doing it for years, remember Tevez and Macherano. They are as bad as poopey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the article the full wording is These are intense hours in the winter transfer period, Juve is at the center of a few of the storylines. Should Mirko Vucinic be sold this week, Juve will try to acquire Osvaldo. Today the bianconeri made the first contacts with some intermediaries. However there has been a concrete offer to Southampton for the striker: Valencia has offered 18 million euro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melmacian_saint Posted 27 January, 2014 Share Posted 27 January, 2014 I thought they had that Peter Lim chap bankrolling their signings? Pulled out according to what I read recently. Spanish clubs look decent given their broke ownership status but it's when you look at a maximum TV income of 40 million (and that's Valencia and Atletico, the rest get no more than 30) against 100 of Barça and Real Madrid (this is fixed BTW, i.e. they could finish bottom and still get the same) that you book your return flights. I suspect that eventually the two powerhouses are going to go equally bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 27 January, 2014 Share Posted 27 January, 2014 I think, whatever happens between now and Friday....he's no longer our player. We'll try and get our money back or some sort of loan fee, but if that doesn't happen then I reckon we'll tear up his contract. Last resort though, obviously. But I just cannot see a way back for him, rumour has it...now this is just rumour...that this wasn't the 1st training ground bust up he's had here, it's actually his 3rd. This was the reason he wasn't around over Christmas...now that could be tosh, but just putting it out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he neevr plays for Saints again then surely he can't be far off being the worst ever signing..?! 13 games, 3 goals, big ego (it would seem), despite obvious talent he hasn't really performed, and to top it off he headbutts a very popular member of the squad leaving the rest of the team wanting rid... The list of worse signings can't be very long. Shame really because he is undoubtadly very cool (coolest player in the league?), and that alone warrents his place in the team if you're asking me.
